VARA Counterparty Risk Desk
Verify the counterparty before the deal moves.
VARA screens companies, brokers, suppliers and trade partners before funds, documents or shipments are released. Each case receives an analyst-reviewed risk report with a clear commercial recommendation.
Built for high-friction trade decisions.
A supplier asks for payment through another company.
A broker pushes urgency before names and documents match.
A bank letter, invoice and domain tell different stories.
A counterparty looks active online, but ownership is unclear.
How the screen is built
The report combines professional screening tools, public-source verification and trade-document review. AI assists with case preparation. Final reports are reviewed before release.
Screening
Sanctions, watchlists, PEP exposure and adverse media sources.
Public source
Company presence, website, domain, contact and open-web consistency.
Document review
Invoices, LOIs, bank letters, chamber extracts, POFs and identity documents where provided.
Trade context
Payment routes, broker chains, urgency, shipment terms and counterparties named in the deal.
Case flow
During the pilot, cases are handled manually so source coverage, review quality and report language stay controlled.
01
Intake
You send the company, jurisdiction, website, contact details and deal documents.
02
Screening
We run structured checks across screening data, public sources and trade documents.
03
Review
AI-assisted case preparation is reviewed by VARA before anything is issued.
04
Report
You receive a concise risk report with findings, red flags and a commercial recommendation.
Confidential by default.
Counterparty documents often include bank details, passports, proof of funds, invoices and private correspondence. The pilot flow keeps intake narrow and access limited.
Limited intake
We request only what is needed to complete the screen.
Human review
AI can prepare the case file, but a report is reviewed before release.
Source transparency
Reports state what was checked and what could not be confirmed.
Clear limits build trust.
VARA provides decision-support due diligence. We do not pretend a report can remove all risk. The value is disciplined verification before a commercial commitment.
No guarantee that a counterparty is safe
No regulated AML approval
No legal or financial advice
No claim of bank-level compliance
